📚💚 Great things happening in Mrs. Freel's 7th Grade ELA! Our Falcons have been reading Touching Spirit Bear and working through “Mild, Medium, and Spicy” challenges to dig deeper into the story! Students teamed up at whiteboards to share ideas, find evidence to support their thinking, and look at different perspectives. They also gave each other feedback and used technology to help improve their responses. Love seeing our Falcons working together, thinking critically, and taking their learning to the next level! 💚🤍🦅 #FalconsFlyFar
